What really impressed me about Traffix is that all of this madness is wrapped up in a super clean, minimalist aesthetic that has sharp lines, bright colors, and funky "elevator" music. This overall calming theme contrasts with the infuriating gameplay, but it works so well. Failing a level for the 40th time isn't exactly fun, but it was hard for me not to keep restarting and trying again. This is a pleasant little strategy game that's bound to keep you hooked for a good while. Perhaps if you find yourself stuck in traffic again (as a passenger), you can whip this out and take control of the situation.

A unique minimalist puzzler, Traffix is a relaxing experience if you can get to grips with the hit and miss Switch control options.

Traffix is nice little game that takes a seemingly straightforward puzzle concept and makes a fun experience out of it.
